The article considers some issues of intercultural communication in the between archaic societies of the Carpathian-Dniester region. Using the method of comparative-historical analysis the authors examine the nature and characteristics of affiliate networks, which served as the basis for intercultural communication in the Early Hallstatt period (XII-X centuries B.C.). One of the factors that determined the complexity and non-linearity of the processes of intercultural communication is location of the Carpathian-Dniester region at the crossroad of several “cultural worlds”. The authors stress that although archeological data confirm the presence of intercultural communication, it was not accompanied by the movement of actual material objects, ceramics itself, between the cultures. Accordingly, this requires a search for mechanisms that explain the processes of intercultural communications in the archaic societies of the Early Hallstatt period of Carpathian-Dniester region.
